> Anti-aliasing should be handled now, font replacement isn't yet.

The commit 922e15cbd04fde3d9d4fbb98600f5471420c2daa actually caused that my
nice fonts became ugly in 1.2-rc1.
I'm not sure if I have something wrong in the fontconfig settings but my fonts
are not aliased now on both my systems (Gentoo and Kubuntu).
I have hinting set in registry and it was working nice in 1.1.44.
Anyway there should be a way to force Wine to use manual hinting settings from
the registry.


Relevant part in my registry:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"FontSmoothing"="2"
"FontSmoothingGamma"=dword:00000578
"FontSmoothingOrientation"=dword:00000001
"FontSmoothingType"=dword:00000001


Relevant part in my .fonts.conf:
  <edit mode="assign" name="rgba" >
   <const>none</const>
  ...
  <edit mode="assign" name="hinting" >
   <bool>true</bool>
  ...
  <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
   <const>hintmedium</const>
  ...
  <edit mode="assign" name="antialias" >
   <bool>true</bool>
  ...


The only way to get nice fonts back for me now is to edit the code and
recompile Wine. Please make the fontconfig settings optional or add an option
to force Wine to use manual settings from registry.
